GHK-Cu Fears

[minipepbeast]

Hello all, I would really like to try GHK-Cu but I've read comment after comment about how awful the pain is using it. I have also read that adding either KPV or BPC-157 can help with the sting. I do not want to try either KLOW or GLOW at this time so I would like thoughts and advice. If I were to mix the GHK-Cu with either, now much BAC water would you use? Thanks for the guidance.

It's a histamine reaction from your mast cells. Take an allergy medicine an hour or so before pinning. No extra bac required.

Interestingly enough, I no longer get considerable pain OR the bruising, and I've gone back to a regular concentration.

The pain was not and never was the kind of scary "OWWWW" pain at pinning. It was soreness twelve hours later. Mentioning it because it's not the kind of pain to be fearful of, more of a hassle.

I took my first pin of Glow two days ago in my upper glute area. No problem. No sting.

Last night took the second in my inner thigh fat. One hour later the spice started. It hurt like a bitch and it still aches 24 hours later. Tonight I added more Bac to my syringe and went back to the glute area and also used a longer needle. Not quite and hour in but so far so good.

How long of a needle? And thanks for the info.

I ordered some 1/2" from Amazon. It's a bit intimidating but was actually no big deal putting in a good fatty spot that I pinched up. And I can report this morning still no bite, sting, welt or ache!

Yeah, I get it. Same here. I just keep looking at mine and have yet to reconstitute it. I think the best idea I have seen is: Draw up your dose and then fill the rest of the syringe with BAC water to dilute it and inject slowly.

I use the smaller 30 unit syringes with the 5/16" needle when I can, for small doses like 500mcg or less. For the GHK cu I am likely to use the 100 unit syringe because then I can dilute it more, at least for a first attempt. The needle is 1/2" but not an issue. I like the 30 unit syringe for small doses because it's quicker to get more accuracy.

Got mine in the mail at 1130 this morning. Reconstituted immediately. Looks as it should. Going to trial like .5mg in the AM with my KPV. Still scared will update.

Funny how when you are searching online when you first learn about peptides, they are all blue, but I think GHK cu is the only one that is actually supposed to be blue . I hope they are not putting any blue food coloring in my 99% pure peptides. So far, so good, no blue peptides until I reconstitute the GHK anyway.

Really not that bad, prolly after using 8mL BAC and a longer needle. I think it was mostly psych during pinning

I will say the ISRs look concerning though.

I noticed a sting the first and second time I used it, but I didn't even pinpoint that it was from the ghkcu at the time. I haven't had any issues since and I don't and never have diluted it. I take 2.5mg in 5 units of bac water daily with zero pain or issues.

I usually draw it up in the same syringe as 10 units of Bpc157.

I wouldn't assume that it will be painful unless it lasts past several days of initial use.

I presume everything is going to be painful because I am a physical coward

Anything that has GHK-Cu in it, dilute it in 10 ml of BAC water, and you should be good to go. At the beginning I didn't have a 10 ml vial, so I'd draw my GHK-CU dosage into the syringe and then draw some BAC water into the same syringe to dilute it further.

 

[Brandon556]

Its really not that bad. I barely notice it. Just try it and you can add more bac or mix it with something else if it really bothers you.

Ive been mixing it with bcp in the same syringe for convenience and it doesn't sting at all with it. 500mcg(10 units) bcp, 2.5mg(15 units) ghk.

I reconstituted with 3ml because that's what fit, I'm going to use with kpv because I use that every day anyway, and they're mixable, and the kpv is supposed to mitigate the sting...I am my own science experiment!

I've been on KLOW for four months and have never experienced and discomfort or pain beyond what normal sq shots give me. I use 3 ml of BAC water for KLOW80.

I am now super invested in your journey. Please do update!

By around 615 eastern tomorrow morning, you'll probably know, unless I'm crying

Every vial I get, whether it's 10mg, 20mg, 25mg, or 30mg peptide, they are all the same size. 3ml BAC water is what fits, so I just do that and do the math.

I must not be in the majority as I have never had a reaction or pain from ghk cu, glow or klow.

I too was experiencing pain and burning with the first few doses, but learned that diluting the GHK-Cu with an additional 20 units of Bac water made the pain go away. U shouldn't mix the other peptides with it, since they have a different PH and it can reduce their efficacy, so I've heard. U will want to take some Zinc when u take the GHK-Cu, since the Cu is copper, and they compete for the same receptors, it seems to balance them out so ur not getting to much of one or the other when taking them. Also u'll want to take vitamin C, to help with assimilation of the copper, and to prevent some pretty serious headaches. Selenium and Molybdenum are also recommended, as they are needed as building blocks of collagen. U may also want to supplement with collagen, the raw material that u may be trying to build in your skin and bones.
